Hello!

Recently bought a house with a Harman P61-2. The stove runs great and I very recently cleaned it out following some videos posted here.

The last couple of times I’be fired her up, the stove has been much louder than it was the first few times I ran it.

Video capturing the noise attached. Any suggestions on more cleaning/parts I should have checked out are greatly appreciated.
 
I could be wrong but it sounds like a fan rubbing on
something or even a bearing is going on one of the fans
Did you remove the combustion and circulating fans and clean them?

To me it sounds like the combustion fan might be rubbing on the cage, like johneh said pull and clean them…or blast them with compressed air
